Bankroll

★★

Basic Definition

A bankroll refers to the funds set aside for playing poker.

Specific Situation

  • Your bankroll is 100,000 yen, and to minimize the risk of loss in a single game, you limit each buy-in to 10,000 yen or less.
  • Participating in high-stakes tournaments without a sufficient bankroll can lead to running out of funds.

Important Information

  • By managing your bankroll properly, you can continue playing without going bankrupt, even through the ups and downs of winning and losing.
  • It's important not to bet amounts that don't match your bankroll due to emotional decisions. Failing to adhere to this increases the risk of quickly losing your funds.

Examples of Term Usage

"I've been on a losing streak lately, but since I'm managing my bankroll well, it's not a problem yet."
